As we approach the middle of the year, June is a great time to check in on your estate plan.

Life changes quickly. A new home, growing family, retirement plans, financial changes, or updated wishes can all affect whether your current plan still reflects what matters most to you.

Regular reviews help ensure your loved ones are protected, and your documents continue to work as intended. If it has been a few years since you reviewed your will, trust, powers of attorney, or beneficiary designations, now may be the perfect time to update them.

Summer often means vacations, road trips, and busy family schedules. Before you head out, consider an important question: If an accident or unexpected illness left you unable to make decisions, who would step in on your behalf?

Estate planning is about more than deciding who receives your assets. It can also include documents that help protect you while you are living, including:

🔹Financial Powers of Attorney
🔹Healthcare Powers of Attorney
🔹Advance Directives

These tools help ensure your wishes are known and that someone you trust can act when needed. A little planning today can provide peace of mind for tomorrow.

The Document That Fails When You Need It Most - https://mailchi.mp/cedarrapidswills/the-document-that-fails-when-you-need-it-most You signed the Power of Attorney (POA). You thought your family was protected. But when a parent or spouse loses capacity, that document you trusted may get rejected at the very bank where you need it most, and your family may not have time to fight it. As your Personal Family Lawyer®, this is exactly the kind of gap I make it my job to close before you ever need to find out the hard way.
